Wood composite bows

 

 

My wood composite bows are basically wood laminated bows with a sinew backing. They are constructed using similar techniques as with hornbows. The extreme flexibility of the bamboo belly allows a very high bending ratio, comparable to hornbows.

I offer several types of wood composite bows, most of them based on central asian horsebows.

Conquest/ Omnogov

A non-contact bow that is based on a bow found in a grave dated to a 13-14th century Mongolian warrior.

 

Conquest/ Chagaan Khad

A contact bow that is based on a bow found in a grave dated to a 13-14th century Mongolian warrior.

 

Magyar or Hungarian bow

A non-contact that bow has bone or horn plates on the ears
